Benefits of having and airspeed sensor.

I was wondering if you guys could tell me what the benefits of having the airspeed sensor on my plane would bring? I know it says In windy conditions, slow speed and landings. But what does it actually do. Stability in wind? Does it give me a more efficient fling aircraft in slow speeds?I'm mainly looking to get better performance (lower amp draw from motor) with my aircraft and I'm wondering it the airspeed sensor is an avenue for this...

  • It definitely helps to lower your battery consumption. I find that without an airspeed sensor the APM uses much higher throttle settings and flys faster than it needs to.
